《三十六计》 “The 36 Stratagems”

If your children like to read Chinese warlord stories like 《三国演义》 “Romance of the Three Kingdoms”, this is another good one: 《三十六计》 “The 36 Stratagems” . My daughters enjoy it.

Approximately 300 years ago, either towards the end of the Ming or the beginning of the Qing Dynasties, an unknown scholar compiled 36 military stratagems. One of the things that makes this classic unique is its use of deception throughout.

Below are some cute comics about the 36 stratagems I collected from internet. Too bad it’s in Traditional Chinese font.
